Who Will Win At The 2025 Grammy Awards?

Jan 22, 2025 | popdust.com | Charli XCX |Jai Phillips

Every year, I have a good grasp on who will win at the coveted Grammy Awards. Most of the time, it's honestly kind of obvious that one album rises into pop culture popularity above others...that one artist has made a bigger mark on the industry this year. However, 2024 proved to be a huge year for music. Don't believe me? Let me put it into perspective. Charli XCX gave us which embodied an entire color and mindset for the summer.
How To Dress Like The Women From "A Complete Unknown"

Jan 17, 2025 | popdust.com | Jai Phillips

We all know that I didn't love A Complete Unknown. I made my feelings clear from the beginning: the movie was a bore, but I did love Sylvie Russo and Joan Baez' characters. Yes, Monica Barbaro who plays Joan and Elle Fanning as Sylvie stole the show in more ways than just their acting. Every time Joan Baez took the stage alone (or alongside Dylan,) I wanted to wear her outfits. What the movie perfectly executes is casual feminine style from the 1960's.
I Didn't Love "A Complete Unknown"

Jan 10, 2025 | popdust.com | Jai Phillips

A Complete Unknown starring Timothee Chalamet as Bob Dylan was guaranteed to be a blockbuster hit. After the buzz of Wicked and Gladiator II died down, Chalamet's press tour and opening weekend were proving to satiate the public. Part of the film was shot in my city, Hoboken, NJ, where I got to witness Chalamet himself. And being that my father is a Bob Dylan fan, I found myself agreeing to see the film despite not being a personal fan of Dylan. With that being said, I still appreciate old music.
What's Going On With Matilda Djerf?

Dec 26, 2024 | popdust.com | Jai Phillips

If I'm being wholly honest: I never fully knew the lore of Matilda Djerf. I knew about Djerf Avenue, the admittedly overpriced and equally trendy eponymous brand of Matilda...but that was about it. What I gathered from Djerf Avenue was that Matilda is the face of the coastal grandmother, clean girl aesthetic. She made curtain bangs cool again, her Instagram makes you want to romanticize your life in the best way possible.

I have the same problem every single year: I have no clue about what to wear on New Year's Eve. We all know the classic holiday attire: velvet, sparkles, lots of basic black, maybe some silver or gold. But, I'm not always into wearing kitschy clothes emphasizing the start of a new era. No, you won't see me donning the "2025" glasses. No gold sashes flaunting the new year. No silly hats.

Dec 20, 2024 | popdust.com | Jai Phillips

Timothee Chalamet Is Having The Best Press Tour Ever

Dec 20, 2024 | popdust.com | Jai Phillips

Press tours can take you many places as a celebrity. Zendaya hung out with tennis pros for Challengers, and Margot Robbie recreated best looks at every single event. When Austin Butler played Elvis, he went to Graceland and met with the Presley family. When Timothee Chalamet was promoting his Bob Dylan biopic, A Complete Unknown, he appeared on ESPN's College Gameday. In terms of press tours, Chalamet is going double platinum.

I Hate My Alo Sweat Set

Dec 11, 2024 | popdust.com | Jai Phillips

As a writer and pop culture aficionado, I like to stay on trend. So when brands like Alo Yoga grow so successful the business is now valued at $10 billion! Although they're still privately owned, they're now the go-to activewear brand...well. This definitely caught my attention. As a yoga instructor, I've always preferred Lululemon. The mats are slip resistant, the clothes are comfortable to practice (and sweat) in, and they're also so fashionable. I get compliments - always.
Your Weekend Playlist: New Music Releases To Listen To Today

Dec 6, 2024 | popdust.com | Jai Phillips

What I love about the winter is that it allows for me to be an introvert. I can stay inside as much as I want- baking, cooking, reading, and above all else, listening to lots of music. From the moment I wake up, I put on a playlist and start my day. Whether it's Christmas music to get me in the holiday spirit, old favorites from Lana Del Rey and Billie Eilish, or even New music releases today showcase a variety of exciting new tracks and albums across all genres.
